If you were to produce a documentary film, it would be about….
The realities of poverty in America, the working poor. However, I would intentionally make it for a Republican audience in mind so they would finally ‘get it’ and stop thinking they are of a superior race because they were born with money and all the means to continue to be rich by sapping money from everyone around them. Perhaps edging on Buddhist philosophy to suggest planet preservation is best for EVERYONE. Or tapping into the wealthy’s fear of there not being anyone left to enslave when the poor are all too hungry and sick to work for pennies.
‘We’ve had it backward for the last 30 years,’ he said. ‘Rich businesspeople like me don’t create jobs. Rather they are a consequence of an ecosystemic feedback loop animated by middle-class consumers, and when they thrive, businesses grow and hire, and owners profit. That’s why taxing the rich to pay for investments that benefit all is a great deal for both the middle class and the rich.’
